Evolution Expands U.S. Reach with Bally’s Rhode Island Entry

Evolution has officially launched its online slot games in Rhode Island, marking its first-ever presence in the state and further expanding its footprint across the U.S. iGaming landscape. The move comes as part of an expanded partnership with Bally’s Corporation, strengthening Bally Casino’s digital portfolio while positioning Evolution in all seven U.S. states where online casino gaming is currently legal.

Through this strategic alliance, players in Rhode Island will now have access to Evolution’s renowned online slot content through its leading brands—NetEnt, Red Tiger, and Big Time Gaming. The inclusion of these titles reinforces Bally’s position in the state’s online market while giving Evolution a new foothold as it continues to grow in the North American region.

“This agreement represents a significant step forward for both Evolution and Bally’s Corporation,” said Jacob Claesson, Chief Executive Officer of Evolution North America. “We’re thrilled to deepen our collaboration with Bally’s by delivering world-class gaming experiences and extend our reach into Rhode Island, a first for Evolution. This partnership showcases our shared commitment to driving innovation and providing exceptional entertainment for players.”

Branded Live Dealer Blackjack Rolls Out in New Jersey and Pennsylvania

Beyond its debut in Rhode Island, the extended deal between Evolution and Bally’s Corporation also introduces Bally’s-branded live dealer Blackjack tables in two of the largest iGaming states: New Jersey and Pennsylvania. These exclusive tables are integrated into the Bally Bet Casino app and aim to deliver a premium, personalized playing experience for users, complete with seamless interface design and immersive gameplay.

Along with the live dealer experience, Bally’s online casino users in both states will also enjoy a broader variety of newly released slot games, enhancing the overall platform offering with cutting-edge titles from Evolution’s expansive content portfolio.

Evolution’s Nationwide Strategy Gains Further Momentum

This latest development underscores Evolution’s aggressive growth strategy across regulated U.S. markets. With Rhode Island now in its portfolio, the company has achieved a presence in every U.S. jurisdiction that currently permits online casino gaming.

Simultaneously, Evolution continues to build on its intellectual property partnerships. The company has secured an exclusive global agreement with Hasbro to develop digital gaming content based on MONOPOLY and other Hasbro board games. This multi-year deal covers all markets, including the United States, and will span Evolution’s suite of brands—NetEnt, Red Tiger, Nolimit City, Ezugi, Big Time Gaming, and Livespins.

Previous collaborations with Hasbro have already proven successful for Evolution. Live casino titles like MONOPOLY Live and MONOPOLY Big Baller have become some of the company’s top-performing games, setting high expectations for future releases under the new agreement.

With strategic state-level rollouts, exclusive branded experiences, and a growing catalogue of high-profile game IPs, Evolution is positioning itself as a dominant force in the U.S. iGaming arena.
